Dans le cadre de la phase finale de son plan d’animation, le conseil général a demandé au Centre d’Études Spiritaines de l’Université de Duquesne à Pittsburgh (C.E.S.) d’organiser un concours de dissertation dont le thème est la Mission Spiritaine aujourd’hui. Ce concours s’adresse à tous les Spiritains profès en formation du monde entier.
Dakar welcomed with open arms and heart the Spiritan Formators coming from the four corners of the earth: 32 in all, accompanied by the Superior General and four members of the Generalate, the Provincial and some PANO con-freres, invited speakers and translators. The meeting is taking place at La Pouponnière Center of the Franciscan Missionary Sisters of Mary (FMM), with Fathers Bede Ukwuije, João Dimba and Florentine Mallya of the Generalate in Rome as the organizers.
